Breaking out of Coober Pedy – Going to a conservation park
While in Coober Pedy on my central Australian trip we had heard about the Breakaways and everyone who mentioned it said you have to go. So we did. It was a bit of a drive […]
Rock painting on Uluru – Looking back at Central Australia
We are heading back to my time at Uluru again today. I forgot that I never showed you some of the rock paintings we saw when we were there. They are not something that you […]
Looking at architecture – Getting back into the city
It has been a very long time since I was in the city, but today I finally went back in. I think the last time I went into the CBD of Melbourne was before the […]
Spending a day in Coober Pedy – On our way home
It has been a few days since I showed any photos from my Central Australia trip, but I still have more images. The images today are not necessarily pretty, but they do give you an […]
Sometimes you find the strangest things – Looking around Coober Pedy
I had no idea that Aliens had crash landed in Australia, let alone Coober Pedy. Who knew. Well I found out when I started looking at photos of the town once we arrived. Once I […]
FINALLY, finally – Time to look at my favourite place for photos
It seems to have taken so long to get to my favourite photos of the trip. Coober Pedy was an absolute surprise for me. I never expected that it would be so good to photograph. […]
Chasms and Waterholes – the last photos from Central Australia
We have almost come to the end of my trip to the Northern Territory. Today I have the last of the photos from the last day there. Though I still have more photos, but not […]
Simpson’s Gap – A break in the West MacDonnell Ranges
On our second day in Alice Springs, we decided it was time to get back to doing the things we had originally planned. It was the same day we went to Hermannsburg, but before we […]
A Mission in the middle – Hermannsburg in Central Australia
One of the places that Suzzanna suggested we go and see was Hermannsburg near Alice Springs. I hadn’t ever heard of it, but once I looked it up I knew it was a definite yes […]
Paintings in Alice Springs – A large town in the red centre
Arriving in Alice Springs was interesting. I’m not sure how else to put it. We were tired after driving for over eight hours and then we checked into our motel. We were spending 4 nights […]
Our next stop King’s Canyon – Moving towards Alice Springs
I’m a day later than I wanted to be with this post. I have to admit I’ve been glued to the computer and YouTube to watch all that is happening with the Queen. I have […]
Our last sunset at Uluru – Getting ready to leave Yulara
When Suzzanna and I were planning our trip to Central Australia one thing we both thought was that we would do sunrise and sunset every day we were there. We did that. The images in […]
Field of Lights is like a field of dreams – Nighttime at Uluru
This excursion was something that Suzzanna really wanted to do. Though when I saw what it was, I wasn’t opposed to doing it. Basically it is a large field that has 50,000 solar lights in […]
Getting up close and personal to Uluru – Excursion around the Rock

Different shades of Uluru – First morning in Central Australia
One of the things we wanted to do while at Yulara and Uluru was try to do sunrise and sunset each day. We knew it would be tiring, but we really thought it would be […]
The road from Adelaide to Coober Pedy – Making our way to Central Australia
The big question we had when we first decided to do this trip was fly or drive.
The trip has begun, first stop, Adelaide
This trip hasn’t seemed liked one that I have been waiting a long time for, probably because it doesn’t seem that long ago that I said to my friend, “I’ll go with you”.
The things you find from the past
I finally made it up to my mum’s place. It has to be almost 3 years since I was here last. I think it is the longest gap between visits.
Visiting the Old Beechworth Gaol
I have mentioned before that on my trip to Beechworth we also went to the Old Beechworth Gaol (jail).
Driving on Gorge Road around Beechworth
